Departmental Advising

Students should plan to see their advisors at least twice a semester, once during the Browsing Period to discuss their plans, and once again for Advisor Authorization.  Please plan ahead.  Advisors have regular office hours and will make special appointments if necessary, but they cannot be available at all times.

 After being admitted to the major, students will be assigned a departmental advisor.  (Lists of advisor assignments will ordinarily be posted after Spring break.)  If a student wishes to be advised by a particular member of the Department, he or she must obtain that faculty member’s agreement prior to applying to the major. 

 When Department members are absent from their duties for whatever reason (sabbaticals, leaves, retirements, etc.) the Department Secretary will reassign their advisees.  We do our best to inform students of these changes.  In case of confusion, students should check the bulletin board outside the English Department Office, 204 Downey House, 294 High Street.
